I-Crystal optics igatsha lesayensi elicwaninga ngokusatshalaliswa kokukhanya kukristalu eyodwa kanye nezimo ezihambisana nakho. Ukusatshalaliswa kokukhanya kumakristalu ayi-cubic kuyi-isotropic, akufani nalokho kumakristalu a-amorphous alinganayo. Kwezinye izinhlelo zekristalu eziyisithupha, isici esivamile sokusakazeka kokukhanya i-anisotropy. Ngakho-ke, into yocwaningo ye-crystal optics empeleni iyi-anisotropic optical medium, kuhlanganise nekristalu ewuketshezi.

Ukusatshalaliswa kokukhanya endaweni yokubona ye-anisotropic kungaxazululwa ngesikhathi esisodwa ngezibalo zika-Maxwell kanye ne-equation yendaba emelela i-anisotropy of matter. Uma sixoxa ngecala lamagagasi endiza, ifomula yokuhlaziya iyinkimbinkimbi. Uma ukumuncwa nokujikeleza kwe-optical kwekristalu kungacatshangwa, indlela yokudweba yejometri ivame ukusetshenziswa ekusebenzeni, futhi i-refractive index ellipsoid kanye ne-light wave surface isetshenziswa kakhulu. Amathuluzi okuhlola avame ukusetshenziswa ku-crystal optics i-refractometer, i-optical goniometer, i-polarizing microscope kanye ne-spectrophotometer.

I-Crystal Optics inezinhlelo zokusebenza ezibalulekile ku-crystal orientation, ukuhlonza amaminerali, isakhiwo sekristalu ukuhlaziywa futhi icwaninga ngezinye izenzakalo ze-crystal optical ezifana nemiphumela engaqondile nokusabalalisa ukukhanya. I-Crystal Opticalingxenyes, njenge-polarizing prism, izinxephezelo, njll. asetshenziswa kabanzi kumathuluzi optical ahlukahlukene kanye nokuhlolwa.
